What are the benefits of taking the Thomas test?

It is hard to stand out among other candidates in highly competitive environment

When the choice lies between the candidates of the nearly equal level, it is the personality that makes the difference. The test conclusively proves your compliance with the vacancy requirements.

Use of such commonplace words as punctuality, proactive attitude, and ability to handle stress make resumes look all the same. The Thomas test enables you to describe your personality in precise professional terms. Test Result Example

By taking the Thomas test, you show your potential employer that you take your choice of a job seriously.

There are no obvious choices when it comes to building a career. There's a risk that in a few of months you'll have to go back to job seeking.

The Thomas test enables you to match your personal qualities and work style with the vacancy requirements. It also identifies possible distractions, demotivators, and work contraindications.

There is a conflict with the management or team members

The Thomas test will help you to figure out how to adjust your behaviour in a team in order to avoid conflict. It suggests what affects your relationships with your colleagues at a deeper level, and above all, what levers you can pull to increase your performance. Perhaps, you need more freedom, or, to the contrary, clear instructions and a pre-planned schedule.

Case

Candidate A. had high hopes for a job in a leading Russian bank. However, the senior position attracted plenty of candidates, and his application could easily fall between the cracks.
